About the Course

In this course, you’ll learn how to keep track of the different versions of your code and configuration files using a popular version control system (VCS) called Git. We'll also go through how to set up an account with a service called GitHub so that you can create your very own remote repositories to store your code and configuration. Throughout this course, you'll learn about Git's core functionality so you can understand how and why it’s used in organizations. We’ll look into both basic and more advanced features, like branches and merging. We'll demonstrate how having a working knowledge of a VCS like Git can be a lifesaver in emergency situations or when debugging. And then we'll explore how to use a VCS to work with others through remote repositories, like the ones provided by GitHub. By the end of this course, you'll be able to store your code's history in Git and collaborate with others in GitHub, where you’ll also start creating your own portfolio! In order to follow along and complete the assessments, you’ll need a computer where you can install Git or ask your administrator to install it for you....

Awesome and well balanced course for working professionals. Clear explanations and coverage of typical use case scenarios. The labs were manageable and did not require a lot of time to complete them.

The Course Content was basic but informative. The pushy attempts of the instructor trying continuously to be humorous is nothing but a letdown!

Other than that, it would have been very useful if some more time was invested in preparation of the course to provide for slides on the screen with important bullet points, workflows, guidelines etc. instead of showing the instructors face the whole time(no offense meant here), which in my opinion makes it much easier and faster to grasp the concepts, instead of listening and rewinding the videos repeatedly.

But still all in all, a good course to grasp the Git Basics.

Honestly, first two weeks were great. After that, it all went like rocket science. I had to watch week3 twice, some of the videos thrice to understand whatis going on. While designing the course, also keep in mind that not all the people are coming after finishing first two courses of the specialization. Videos of week 3 and 4 seemed like revision courses.

Great video content and lectures.

The Qwiklabs assesment tool is a night mare.

1. Takes a long time to provision resources.

2. Especially in week 3, even if you manage to push changes to the remote repository the checks verifying that you did will fail and you will not get the grade.

Teaching content is great, the assesment tool is a world of frustration

Random topics that have nothing to do with the training, including rando. social engineering. Doesn't tell you how to get GitHub or install it or anything.

Week 3 and 4 should be updated on the labs, otherwise this was a good course. Easy to work through.

my course module 2 in qwiklabs is not working fine. The package in lab had some problems and didnt allow me to perform the right steps as Python wasnt installed in the package. I tried downloading it and creating necessary files along the way & executed the commands as described, but the lab doesn't track my progress as done. And i dont know how to move ahead from here.

Instructor is simply reading the lecture. It maybe better to read on your own unless you want to get the certificate.
